BETHESDA, MD—In the wake of heightened concern over possible conflicts of interest at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), former NIH Director Harold E.

Other NIH officials responsible for major programs should also be barred from participating in certain kinds of financial activities with outside companies, he said.
